In no particular order, I listen to all of them regularly:
Omnibus - general obscure history hosted by indie rocker John Roderick and Jeopardy's golden boy Ken Jennings
The Dollop - (mostly) American history with a leftist bent. One comedian reads a story the other hasn't heard before.
Not Another D&D Podcast - apologies for the first episode, but great world- and character-building. Really shows how great cooperative storytelling can be
Last Podcast on the Left - comedy/horror. Conspiracies, cults, UFOs, and other weird shit. Their historical deep dives are awesome.
I listen to these regularly, but there's a limited series podcast I like to recommend called S-Town. It's excellent, especially if you're from the southern US or grew up in a rural area. If you aren't from the south or a rural area, it'll probably be an extra-wild ride!
Love NADDPOD, and yeah once you get past the rocky start (they talk about dragon pussy within the first 10 minutes) it's a creative and hilarious actual play with some very emotional moments. I cried at several points during campaign 1.
My medieval reenactment camp group is basically The Crick after we found a stump at our campsite.
